What To Expect
All aboard the Moana for our exciting afternoon sail when the Tradewinds speed things up creating a fun, wet, and wild Hawaiian Rollercoaster ride as we sail past Diamond Head and into deeper waters outside Waikiki. Don’t forget to keep a good lookout as we often spot sea life. From Manolo (flying fish) gliding just above the surface of the water, to pods of Hawaiian spinner dolphins taking turns racing alongside the boat, you truly don’t know what you might see!
